How much sleep do you guys get?

I can't get in a straight 6 hours even when I am on painkillers...

The only time that I can sleep soundly is if I am lying next to someone that I trust.

Sometimes I get as little as 3/4 hours but I try to get AT LEAST 5.

WOW - I'm not the only one who naps. I get 7-8 at night and from 11:30- 1:00 every day I am napping. I used to feel guilty about it but now I just tell myself I'm growing.

If I'm truly feeling shitty and know it's not the kind that improves once I get my blood pumping, I give myself a break. Nothing from nothing usually = nothing, so I'd rather skip a bad workout. It's like putting money in the bank for a really good one in the future.

Very interesting replies here. I have sorta kept a journal over the last couple of weeks just to keep track of how much sleep I was getting. Average=6.5 hours plus about 15 minute "power" nap in afternoon. I geuss I am more in the normal range than I thought.

I wonder though, if I am getting 6.5 hours now, whne I am 70 or 80 Y/O, will I be surviving on maybe 3or 4 hours like I did when I was late teens? One of those things that make ya go "Hmmm?"
